Selina's drowsiness disappeared instantly.

She sat up and turned on the lights.

There was no sign of Matthew in the empty bedroom.

She got out of bed immediately.

Selina walked down the stairs and saw that the living room was dimly lit.

She breathed out a sigh of relief.

Matthew was in the living room.

Why was he not asleep? What was he doing in the living room so late at night?

Selina smiled to herself after she thought about it.

She thought she knew why Matthew was still awake.

Selina entered the living room and saw Matthew sitting on the sofa.

His back was facing her, as light enveloped his silhouette.

Selina tip-toed behind Matthew and covered his eyes with her hands.

"Guess who?" Selina tried to disguise her voice.

However, Matthew was not in the mood to entertain Selina.

He gently but firmly removed Selina's hands from his eyes.

"Selina. Why did you get up?" Matthew's voice was a little rough.

Selina pouted. "You're no fun. You didn't even guess who I am."

She sat down beside Matthew. "Why aren't you sleeping?"

He pursed his lips and did not reply her.

Selina raised her head to look at Matthew. "I think I know why you are sitting here instead of sleeping."

Matthew held his breath.

His voice grew hoarse. "Selina."

Selina said teasingly, "It's because you're nervous, right? You can't sleep because you were thinking about when we will become husband and wife tomorrow."
